  • Air Compressor Noise Control Air Compressor Noise Control
    AIR COMPRESSOR BY NOISE CONTROL USA AIR COMPRESSOR NOISE CONTROL AIR COMPRESSOR NOISE CONTROL Compressor are often noisy an effective solution is often required to suppress the noise emitted from them. Compressor noise is usually a nuisance because they are sitting on comparatively lightweight structures. The best way to soundproof and to reduce any noise from a compressor regardless of size is to enclose it within a Floor Mounted 4-Sided Soundproofing Acoustic blanket Enclosure. For best results the enclosure should be as large as possible to allow less heat buildup and also to be more effective at reducing the noise output from reaching other areas and acoustically isolating the Compressor to contain structure borne sound being transmitted from where it is mounted. Depending on the current sound levels of the Compressor and your noise reduction goals, an abatement solution can be determined. In most applications a soundproofing blanket enclosure will meet your sound reduction needs. This is a two to four sided soundproofing enclosure with or without a roof. Typically a frame and track is constructed to suspend the soundproofing curtain panels. The soundproofing blankets material is a composite material bonding mass loaded vinyl with an acoustical absorber and faced with a vinyl diamond stitched facing. Using our Soundproofing Acoustic Blankets to construct a 4-sided noise control solution will significantly reduce sound. The noise reduction to be expected is a range of 20 to 40 decibels. The better the construction, weight of blankets and amount of soundproofing acoustic blankets used (the surface area) all factor into your sound reduction numbers.

  • Suburban Noise Control with Plant Materials and Solid Barriers
    Suburban Noise Control with Plant Materials and Solid Barriers by DAVID I. COOK and DAVID F. Van HAVERBEKE, respectively professor of engineering mechanics, University of Nebraska, Lin- coln; and silviculturist, USDA Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Forest and Range Experiment Station, Fort Collins, Colo. ABSTRACT.-Studies were conducted in suburban settings with specially designed noise screens consisting of combinations of plant inaterials and solid barriers. The amount of reduction in sound level due to the presence of the plant materials and barriers is re- ported. Observations and conclusions for the measured phenomenae are offered, as well as tentative recommendations for the use of plant materials and solid barriers as noise screens.

  • Construction Noise Control Products and Vendors Guidance Sheet
    Construction Noise Control Products and Vendors Guidance Sheet Revised: 16 July 2018 Distributed by: New York City Department of Environmental Protection (NYC DEP) The following is intended to provide guidance to construction contractors with respect to finding and selecting suitable construction noise control products. These products and vendors may be helpful to contractors for achieving compliance with the New York City Noise Code, and more specifically, with the Construction Noise Rules found in Local Law 113, Section 24-219, Chapter 28, Title 15 of the Rules of New York City which went into effect in July 2007. While there are similarities in the approach to construction noise control for all work sites, the specific measures and solutions need to be carefully selected and implemented correctly. In general, noise control measures can be applied at the noise source, along the pathway, or at the receiver (listener) directly. For these reasons, it is highly recommended that contractors discuss their situation with a qualified acoustical consultant as early as possible. It is always more cost-effective to design for good acoustics from the beginning rather than to rely on retrofit solutions when noise becomes a problem later. To aid in the selection of an acoustical consultant, links to several national professional societies are provided. The NYC DEP can also provide a list of consultants. This information is not an exhaustive list of noise control products and vendors. It is intended for guidance and informative purposes only, and should not be construed as an official endorsement of any product, vendor, or consultant by the City of New York.

Mine planning defines the model of mining operations, production and processing rates, and ore excavation and dumping scheduling, including spatial positioning for all these activities. The planning process then needs to assess the impact of these mining activities on environmental quality. This task can be successfully completed with contemporary models for assessment of suspended particles dispersion and noise propagation. In addition to that, this approach enables verification of the efficiency of suggested protection measures for reduction or elimination of identified impact. A case study of dust and noise management at the Bor copper mine is presented, including the analysis of the efficiency of planned protection measures from dust and noise, within long-term mine planning at the Veliki Krivelj and Cerovo open pits of the Bor copper mine. Keywords: dust and noise impact assessment and control; air dispersion modeling; AERMOD; noise mapping; SoundPLAN; mine planning 1.

Publ ication No. EPA-45012-77-022 PREFACE The purpose of this document is to inform regional, State, and local air pol 1ution control agencies of the different techniques available for reducing organic emissions from solvent metal cleaning (degreasing) . Solvent metal cleaning includes the use of equipment from any of three broad categories: cold cleaners , open top vapor degreasers , and conveyori zed degreasers. A1 1 of these employ organic solvents to remove soluble impurities from metal surfaces. The diversity in designs and applications of degreasers make an emission 1imi t approach inappropriate; rather, regulations based on equipment specifications and operating requirements are recomnended. Reasonably available control technology (RACT) for these sources entails implementation of operating procedures which minimize solvent bss and retrofit of applicable control devices. Required control equipment can be as simple as a manual cover or as complex as a carbon adsorption system, depending on the size and design of the degreaser.

Received: 9 October 2019; Accepted: 6 December 2019; Published: 10 December 2019 Featured Application: Providing a new research perspective for the development of acoustic requirements in naturally ventilated buildings and of façade control strategies enabling NV. Abstract: The indoor-outdoor connection provided by ventilation openings has been so far a limiting factor in the use of natural ventilation (NV), due to the apparent conflict between ventilation needs and the intrusion of external noise. This limiting factor impedes naturally ventilated buildings meeting the acoustic criteria set by standards and rating protocols, which are reviewed in this paper for residential buildings. The criteria reflect a general effort to minimize noise annoyance by reducing indoor sound levels, typically without a distinction based on a ventilation strategy.

    WSEAS TRANSACTIONS on APPLIED and THEORETICAL MECHANICS DOI: 10.37394/232011.2020.15.10 Sayel M. Fayyad Controlling Noise and Gas Emissions by a New Design of Diesel Particulate Filters SAYEL M. FAYYAD Department of Mechanical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering Technology, P.O. Box 15008, Al-Balqa Applied University Amman – JORDAN Abstract: -A theoretical and numerical studies on Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF) and its working principal in controlling noise and exhaust gasses emissions is presented here. This research includes a study of current Martials types that is used in diesel particulate nowadays and on a new materials and technologies that we can use in future. A new design of DPF is presented here. Unfortunately, in Jordan we face an environmental problems caused by diesel engines and the production of NOx and other exhaust gases and particulate matter. The main reason of this problem is the low specification of diesel fuel that is used in Jordan, which leads to shorten the life time of the Diesel particulate filters and leading to block them in some intensive cases. This problems leads to increasing the pollutant in the air which can harm the people's health, animal and plants, so this research goal is to find a solution for the diesel particulate filter life time and to control the environmental emissions and engines noise resulted from gas dynamics. It is found that the developed design of DPF achieves about 22% increase in its performance in both gas emission and noise reductions comparing with the traditional one. Key-Words: -Diesel Particulate Filters, Gas Dynamics, Noise Reduction, Noise Control, Transmission Losses, Pollutions, Emissions, and Automobiles.
